This book has been written specifically for student pilots, potential student pilots, qualified pilots and instructors of Gyroplanes/Gyrocopters/Autogyros.In 2009, the British Rotorcraft Association published a revised syllabus for training for the PPL(G),the licence to fly Gyroplanes/Gyrocopters/Autogyros, in the UK.  The syllabus clarifies the exercises which define the training program and the flying skills that a student pilot must demonstrate consistently and confidently in order to obtain their pilot’s licence.The “Gyrocopter Pilot’s Handbook – The Flying Exercises” is structured to match the training syllabus and provides detail of how to achieve the flying skills.  It aims to be a complete guide to how to fly a Gyro.This book will enable a student pilot to study both in advance of, and during, their training to help revise the pre-flight briefings and speed up their learning.Existing pilots will be able to keep their knowledge “fresh”, especially in some of the more advanced and emergency techniques which can be forgotten over time.  This book also contains guidance on topics which are not explicitly taught in the syllabus eg landing on sloping ground.Trainee instructors can use this handbook during their training for the AFI (Assistant Flying Instructors) rating to help understand the PPL(G) content and use it as a handy reference guide during the early stages of their instruction.This book contains information collected from the experience of many of the instructors in the UK.  It is not specific to any make or model of Gyro and it aims to be as relevant to both single seat and multiple seat Gyros, kit built and factory built.

Dieses Buch richtet sich an Flugschüler, qualifizierte Piloten und Fluglehrer von Tragschraubern / Gyrocoptern / Autogyros / Gyroflugzeugen. Im Jahre 2009 publizierte die British Rotorcraft Association einen revidierten Lehrplan über das Training für die PPL(G)-Linzenz zum Fliegen von Tragschraubern im Vereinigten Königreich (UK). Der Lehrplan definiert die Übungen für das gesamte Training und die fliegerischen Fähigkeiten, die ein Flugschüler konsistent und sicher zeigen muss, um seine Pilotenlizenz zu bekommen. "Tragschrauber - Gyrocopter Handbuch für Piloten - Flugübungen" lehnt sich im Aufbau an diesen Lehrplan an und liefert die Details, wie man die Flugfähigkeiten erwirbt. Das Ziel ist eine vollständige Einführung in das Fliegen von Gyrocoptern.
